"I have frequented the Castle on many occasions, both socially and for lunch. The Millers family has done a fantastic job refurbishing the once tired and rundown Victorian building. Initially, everything was quite pleasant, but it seems they have now started hiring a lot of young cheap foreign labor who are not properly trained. During our last lunch visit, our well-intentioned and charming waiter was unsure of how to properly set the table. We tried to explain it to him, but the food was not up to the usual standard we have come to expect from their other establishments in the area. It could have just been an off day, but if you catch them on a good day, it is a lovely place to spend a few hours in a pleasant atmosphere. I can't help but feel sorry for these young people just trying to make a living. However, when Millers first arrived in the area, everyone was impressed by their unique approach. The presentation was wonderfully different and the overall experience was delightful. I have fond memories of enjoying delicious meals and good times at their restaurants. If you haven't already, I recommend trying any of their establishments for a unique dining experience, and hopefully, you will visit on a good day."

The Castle Porlock is now under new family ownership in the last few months, so any previous reviews should be disregarded.

The staff here are fantastic and friendly, the food is excellent, and the building is beautiful. I wish we could stay longer, as I’m sure the rooms and service are just as wonderful. Thank you!

I visited this restaurant with friends and waited for approximately 15 minutes to be served drinks that were quite expensive. The ambiance was lacking, giving off more of a library-like feel rather than a cozy restaurant atmosphere. The staff seemed indifferent to our presence, making the overall experience less enjoyable.

this place is beautiful. my room is spacious and very comfortable. the team is friendly, helpful and thoughtful and offers simple solutions that make a difference. this morning to breakfast, an uncomplicated, perfectly cooked complete English. I have made a comment to the waitress that I would have made a mistake to make the Suduko puzzle in time and tried to find out where I was wrong. without missing a beat, she offered me a red pencil so I could write the new ones in another color. a simple thing that I know, but for me that shows a great care and attention to the guests needs. I enjoy it so much that I have extended my stay.

"Yet again we needed to celebrate having resolved a long standing technical problem. The pub in Brompton Regis came up in discussion the evening before when our neighbour was around for a glass of wine. He said that before coming to our village he’d looked at houses in Brompton Regis. He left and we booked a table. Friday was a damp day but we were not deterred as we drove up into the Brendon Hills, usually distant views greet one but this day the clouds were dominant. However as we descended from Roborough Gate towards Wimbleball Lake we could turn off the wipers. By the time we crossed the bridge at the top of the lake a shaft of sun broke through and sparkled across the surface of the water whilst light wisps of mist kissed the shore line. Rounding the churchyard wall always raises our expectations for there is the George Inn. The bar door was hardly open before Tash, a beaming smile, greeted us with a price board for ‘COFFEE’. I said in my previous review that I wouldn’t mention coffee at the George again, sorry, but I must. The coffee machine had arrived the day before. Well done Tripadvisor the George! We had a wonderful starter of Baba Ganoush, new to the menu that day. It was exceptionally good with delicate flavour. Following on was chicken breast and pasta with tomato sauce, again great flavour though my wife found it a little too greasy. My Bengal curry was fantastic and a most generous serving. Our ‘Desert,’sic, was Chocolate Ganache with pistachio ice cream under crunched nuts. I had the steamed maple syrup pudding set in a delicious whisky sauce, a very delicate and light texture, just right to finish on after the curry! Of course we had our long awaited espressos from the new device, a delicious finale to our meal. Earlier in walkers had dropped in wanting a coffee. Now all on Exmoor should be heading to the George for their ‘hit’."
